Let’s face it, we all want to belong to someone or some group. For this week’s assignment, be sure to view the week four videos.
The first is from the TED site by Brene Brown. Her presentation, The Power of Vulnerability is on the topic of belonging and the courage it takes to allow ourselves to be intimate and vulnerable with others.
Next, watch the video titled, A Class Divided from PBS. This video is an experiment by elementary school teacher, Jane Elliott, who wanted to help end racism. Although this is not an experiment that we would use today you can also hear from her students after they became adults by looking at the PBS web site.
**In your assignment this week, write your reflective response (at least 200 words) to the videos and the reading.
Feel free to discuss your reflection on the videos as part of this week’s discussion on belonging.
What have you learned about relationships, belonging, or even about yourself in this class and from the videos that might help you with your relationships in the future? What lessons might apply to our current situations and events?
Remember to cite your sources, and in APA format.

Read Hot and Cold Streaks Article Actions
1) It explores the idea that athletes can be working in hot and cold streaks, maybe even be in a “zone”. Introduce this concept to a friend and see what they believe. Then, present the scientific findings and see if they are convinced. I suspect that their own intuition will be well-supported by past events that they can recall easily and presenting scientific findings may do little to persuade such a strong belief. Please, then discuss very briefly and try to use terms from the chapter explaining what you found. If sports isn’t something you feel comfortable with, you can discuss the perception of random events in some other arena (i.e. gambling, stock market). For the purpose of the question, any of these topics are equally relateable to discuss with a friend. 2) Research on the Net

GENDER DIFFERENCES IN MATE SELECTION
Evolutionary theory is often invoked to explain gender differences in mate selection. If the motive to reproduce explains men’s attraction to young (pretty) women and women’s attraction to financially stable men—as evolutionary psychologists claim—then how does it explain the increasing number of women who do not depend on men for financial stability because they are themselves economically independent?
Or, how does one explain the increasing number of women who choose not to have children? If they do not plan to have children, then they certainly do not need a financially stable mate committed to the long-term care of offspring they do not intend to have. Or, how can evolutionary theory explain the increasing number of women who are not married yet have children?
For this Discussion, you will examine conditions that influence diffusion of responsibility from the perspective of mate selection.
TO PREPARE
Review the Learning Resources for this week and examine how social psychology theories and research explain mate selection.
Compare evolutionary theory and social psychology theories as they apply to mate selection.
BY DAY 3

Respond to at least one of your colleagues in the following way:
Informed by social psychology theory and research, explain how your colleague’s analysis might differ if applied cross-culturally.
